Chapter 27                                                             �

Yu Qian even had an idea of ​​wanting to end this matter as soon as possible, but he knew it was impossible.

No, he doesn't want to be ahead of time.

But before this, there was a particularly important thing to be done, even if this conference was to give way, that was the imperial examination and the imperial court's talent ceremony.

Yu Qian can only let this thing go.

However, this time the imperial examinations collided with each other in the prosperous era of the classics, and it was even more because of the fierce discussions among scholars. Countless scholars were unintentionally reviewing.

Talk about various meanings one by one.

Especially the time of Datong and the fake works of "Ancient Literature Books", these two things became the center of discussion.

Of course, generally speaking, there is nothing to review before the exam.

Most people think that the exam for Jinshi is the most difficult, but in fact, it is not the case. For many scholars in the south, the exam for scholars is the most difficult.

In the imperial examination, there is no way to discuss talent in the exam.

In order to take care of candidates in different regions, the examination is usually 3,000 yuan and 300 yuan. Generally speaking, the examination questions are not too difficult, so they can be promoted but not, and sometimes there is only a little difference.

It is more about playing on the spot. The review is not very effective.

Now in the city of Beijing, the southern Wu and northern Xuedu are here.

It even made many scholars visit, which was very lively.

Shanxi scholar Han Wen is also one of the candidates who come to Beijing. He is one of the few candidates with concentration. Of course, it is also related to him who is from Shanxi.

After all, candidates from the north generally do not pass the southern exam. Although they are admitted by the north and south list, the number of places for the care of the admission here will not be taken into consideration.

Han Wen felt a little weak in her heart.

This is why I have been studying in the inn.

But when he was studying quietly, he heard a news that either, the title of "The Book of Ancient Literature" was cancelled in this scene.

After hearing the news, Han Wen couldn't calm down. The book in her hand couldn't help but fall on the ground.

Since Taizu confirmed the imperial examination, the content of the imperial examination has not changed much. The last time the imperial examination content was moved, it seemed that it was already the case during the Taizu period.

The imperial examination was the foundation of the scholars and officials of the Ming Dynasty. At this moment, the "Ancient Literature Book" that has always been regarded as the golden rule was deleted. The impact was so great that it really attracted countless people's attention.

Xue Xuan, who was resting outside the city, could no longer sit still after hearing the news.

He ordered his disciples to send a letter to Wu Yubi, saying that he would visit him.

The so-called Southern Wu and Northern Xue are Wu and Bi and Xue Xuan.

However, Xue Xuan is different from Wu and Bi.

Xue Xuan was an official for a long time. Xue Xuan's father served as a teacher during the Hongwu period. At that time, he ordered that if there was no one in the imperial examination in a county, the teacher would be punished.

Emperor Hongwu never punished him lightly.

So Xue Xuan had to take the exam. He won the Henan Jieyuan in one fell swoop and then passed the Jinshi. Then he entered the officialdom. He was always extremely honest in the officialdom. He did not attach his superiors to the center.

However, he had a good relationship with Cao Nai, and he could be said to be Cao Nai's teacher and friend. In the case of Cao Nai's removal, Xue Xuan was transferred from the center to the local government and became a local official.

Later, Xue Xuan became an official when she was old.

After all, he had never thought of becoming an official in his life. In addition, he was old, when Cao Nai was dismissed from prime minister, he was in his fifties. He was one or two local officials in the local area, so he was naturally only sixty.

No matter whether he was an official or retired at home, he never stopped studying and lectured. It can be said that his disciples are spread all over Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan and Hebei.

Later generations called the two major schools of Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty, one was the study of Guanzhong and the Hedong school was the study of Xue Xuan.

However, although Xue Xuan and Wu and Bi have never met each other, they may not be able to see each other.

There is nothing else. Xue Xuan was taught by a great scholar of the Yuan Dynasty since childhood. When he was young, Zhu Cheng did not study the right and wrong. Only when he was old did he learn about a hundred schools of thought and his knowledge became broader.

Fundamentally speaking, he inherited the teachings of Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Yuan dynasties, and he was the one who had a master.

But Wu Yubi, although he became Yang Pu as his teacher, he would know who Yang Pu was? The master of the home court and even the chief assistant. Not to mention Yang Pu’s knowledge, even if Yang Pu has knowledge, he could not teach Wu Yubi.

Most of Wu and Bi's knowledge was learned by themselves.

The knowledge he realized himself is different from the inheritance of fundamental science.

Otherwise, Wu and Bi's disciples would all devote themselves to the study of mind, which is not without reason.

But now Xue Xuan can't control these things anymore.

The next day, before Xue Xuan could visit Wu Yubi, Wu Yubi came.

Wu and Bi met Xue Xuan and said, "I dare not trouble Xue Gongguizhi. The students came to visit Xue Gong specially."

Xue Xuan naturally treated her politely and said, "I dare not take it. I dare not take it."

Overall, Xue Xuan is now in her seventies. She is at least several years older than Wu and Bi.

The two of them held back their disciples, and only two trusted disciples were beside them. Chen Xianzhang was standing behind Wu and Bi. The disciple standing behind Xue Xuan was Yan Yuxi. He was a Jinshi for ten years in Zheng and had not been in the officialdom for long, so he resigned from office.

The two were silent for a while, and Xue Xuan said, "Mr. Li entrusted to be a villain, Chen Wen is so villain. I want to overthrow my Taoist rule. What are Mr. Wu's plans?"

Compared with Wu and Bi, Xue Xuan has a stronger sense of responsibility for the inheritance of Taoism.

This is also a characteristic of the Hedong School.

Later generations have evaluated the Hedong School, which completely inherited the Confucianism of the Song and Yuan dynasties and did not fight the war at all. Wu Yubi's disciples often opposed their masters. If Chen Xianzhang ordered the Baisha School to be very different from Wu Yubi's knowledge, but the Hedong School is in line with the same lineage, and the master and apprentice are exactly the same. As long as you hear the discussion, you will know the Hedong School.

Now Xue Xuan's words show that they are familiar with politics. At least Xue Xuan is very clear about the relationship between Li Xian and Chen Wen.

Wu Yubi said, "I am afraid that I have no master, so I would like to ask you to show me."

Wu Yubi naturally had no idea, but he didn't want to make too many moves. First of all, he thought that "The Book of Ancient Literature" was a fake, which was a big blow to Neo-Confucianism. But books were fakes, and knowledge was not fakes.

Most of Wu and Bi's knowledge was realized by themselves. Therefore, even if this "Ancient Literature Book" was a fake, it would not have a big blow to Wu and Bi.

What's more, there are different differences in fake works.

You should know that ancient books were all bamboo slips. It might be a piece of bamboo slips that were confused, or a certain piece of article was removed. And so on. Just a piece of article by Chen Wen cannot explain anything.

Even if Your Majesty summons them, there is always a place to speak. At that time, whether it is true or false, I will discuss the truth or not.

This is also Wu Yubi's confidence, and his knowledge is not adulterated.

But Xue Xuan is different.

It’s not that Xue Xuan’s own cultivation is not as good as Wu and Bi, but what Xue Xuan is most proud of is that his school of inheritance is orderly, and his retreat from various masters is related to Cheng and Zhu.

This is also the pride of Xue Xuan.

Xue Xuan regards his family's knowledge as a holy spirit, so he naturally cannot tolerate any blasphemy. Not to mention, if they talk about this issue in the Great Harmony era, they still have a slight bad intention to see it, but the "Ancient Literature Book" is faked, and the "Ancient Literature Book" is removed from the examination scope during the exam, and the meaning of it is obvious.

Xue Xuan said: "I asked my old friends in the court that the court allowed people to open newspapers. It was just that I had to file a record with the Tongzheng Department. I had raised more than a thousand taels of silver and was about to open a newspaper to make things right. I would like to ask Mr. to join."

Wu Yubi said: "It is better to obey orders than respect."

Chen Xianzhang suddenly spoke behind him, "Disciples are willing to pay a thousand taels of silver to join in the grand ceremony."

Xue Xuan glanced at Wu Yubi and felt that this disciple was a little unruly, but he was indeed short of money. Xue Xuan was a poor person and had great influence, so he got a thousand taels of silver among the scholars and officials. As for whether a thousand taels of silver is enough, it is hard to say.

It's the time to need money. Of course, you can't be polite.

Xue Xuan said, "I'll thank you for this."

Chen Xianzhang even took the initiative to discuss with Xue Xuan's disciples what to do with this newspaper, so the second newspaper of the Ming Dynasty, and the first non-public newspaper, appeared.

Xue Xuan even named the newspaper "Tianliu", and the meaning is very clear.
